I've never been abroad in my life. Always Turkey. Never ever been abroad. I learnt english watching english movies with english subtitles.
The hardest time I had to talk to anyone was this poor ranga kid in KFC in Bristol Tennessee. I couldn't understand a word he said. I still don't even know. we all just looked at each other. It was really yocal southern. Nothing like I'd heard down there before or after. Also side note. We went there to KFC because we thought, well we're down south, Tennessee shit that's gotta be somewhere near Kentucky, KFC must be the shit in this area. No. It was the worst KFC experience ever. Not just because I could understand ol' Cletus, but my food was cold and it was just overall terrible. And the bread was stale. And some massive huge fat sherrif sat few tables down from us, now I mean a huge motherfucker ay. Like Chief Wigan no shit. Haha. Good memories. That was after we did the Bristol Speedway track tour and got to sit in the owners box and then go around the track at 60mph on a bus. But it was still awesome.
You gotta get out, man. Fuck Turkey. I don't mean that as offense but if I'd never been anywhere I'd be like Fuck Germany too. I wanna see the world.
Yeah, it was all different. Texas was different. Denver was really different, more like home really that's why I loved Denver. Not just for the Broncos or the weed, it was just home to me. It moved at my pace. The weather was very similar. The Alps. I was only in LA for airports but I recently met a fuck wit at a pub from Cali and he was nothing like anybody I had ever met in my life. He was impressed I guessed California and he asked why and I said well you certainly ain't from the south and you're too weird for New York, it's gotta be California. Lol. He was out there ay, I'm sure he wasn't like everyone from California, at all in any respect, but I'll always remember him at the same time for being just like nobody I'd met before. He had long hair that he kept half in his face so you couldn't see his face. He laughed at everything but had this accent unlike anything I'd heard not even in movies. He wore weird clothes too and seriously reminded me of Jack Sparrow. I dunno.  and this almost... Unforgettable wicked laugh.
I'm fairly fluent in Thai, and passable in jiak (south vietnamese) to get around But I swear I have an easier time understanding Thai people speaking in Thai than some Irish tourists speaking english here. Its like, I know they are technically speaking english, but its like, what the hell did you just say?, that accent can be so ridiculously thick
I haven't. Why dont you move to Victoria or Vancouver or even Toronto. Are those places really cold in winter? I dont think so.
Not my taste. I appreciate continentality. Cold winters and hot summers but winters are much more important but summers should at the very least be warm. In Canada, There was a city in Quebec that I got in love with its climate but dont remember the name of the place. Average low in January is around -21°C and it gets awesome precipitation which means too much snowfall and summers were warm due to its continentality. I appreciate continentality.
On a weather forum, I had seen the official averages of the place. I couldnt memorize the name of the place but it was in Quebec. I would say it is a hell lot wetter version of Winnipeg with the similar continentality.
I live in a mild sea coast city in western turkey but I go to Eastern Turkey for the extreme cold weather in winter. However, at -30°C, I was feeling like my hands were burning on fire even with gloves on fire. But I like extreme temperatures. I've always been interested in cold weather since my childhood.
